WATCH: Redskins HC Jay Gruden Wants You To Stop Calling Him A "Fat Ass"

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden isn't hiding from the criticism directed at him on what's basically a daily basis.

So, when asked by reporters if he's able to tune the negativity out like he's implored his players to do, Gruden offered this gem up with a smirk:

I read some articles. I have to kind of be up to date so when I come up here I’m aware of what’s going on. I really dislike the guy who called me a fat ass. I don’t mind you critiquing my coaching style, but to make fun of my weight, that’s unfair. I’m only 225. Jesus.

You can watch the video of Gruden's (hilarious) answer above.
